Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics View on Kinetics of Autocatalytic Reactions—Two Illustrative Examples [PDF]
Autocatalytic reactions are in certain contrast with the linear algebra of reaction stoichiometry, on which rate equations respecting the permanence of atoms are constructed. These mathematical models of chemical reactions are called conservative.

Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics—The Nonequilibrium Perspective
An alternative to the Carnot-Clausius approach for introducing entropy and the second law of thermodynamics is outlined that establishes entropy as a nonequilibrium property from the onset.

Onsager's Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics as Gradient Flow in Information Geometry. [PDF]
We consider Onsager’s non-equilibrium thermodynamics from the perspective of the gradient flow in information geometry. Assuming Onsager’s reciprocal relations, we can regard his phenomenological equations as gradient-flow equations and ...

Covariant Relativistic Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics of Multi-Component Systems † [PDF]
Non-equilibrium and equilibrium thermodynamics of an interacting component in a relativistic multi-component system is discussed covariantly by exploiting an entropy identity.

Equilibrium thermodynamics — Callen’s postulational approach [PDF]
In order to provide the background for nonequilibrium thermodynamics, we outline the fundamentals of equilibrium thermodynamics. Equilibrium thermodynamics must not only be obtained as a special case of any acceptable nonequilibrium generalization but ...

Nonlinear Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics Based on the Ehrenfest-Klein Model. [PDF]
Nonlinear non-equilibrium thermodynamic relations have been constructed based on the generalized Ehrenfest-Klein model. Using these relations, the behavior of the entropy and its production in time at arbitrary deviations from equilibrium has been ...
